Dia de Muertos

Halloween promised to be a wild night in Chicago, falling as it did on a Friday. Instead the monster returned, with temperatures in the 30s, howling winds, snow, sleet, and 23 foot waves crashing on Lake Shore Drive.

I started to fall ill with a harsh sickness, for the first time in years, something like the flu. Trying not to blame the fresh air, flu shot, or anything else that’s undoubtably good for me.
